Real, real war December 17, 2007
This 1st person shooter makes a new era in this kind of games. Maybe not so graphically espectacular as Medal of Honor or similars, but with realistic ballistics and weapons.
A single shot at 1000m can kill you and the weight of ammo and weapons is limited, so you can not behave as a Bradley tank as you do in MOHAA, for example.
The enviroment is very big, with a tactical use of maps and obstacles, and there is not so much pleople as in other shooters.
You can manage a wide range of infantry weapons, including RPG or LAW grenade launchers, guided AA and AT missiles, machine guns, and a wide range of vehicles, including M-60, M1A1, T-55, T72 tanks BMP or Bradley ATVs (nice realistics, but it is NOT a tank simulator), or helicopters (poorly realistic).
As a complement ther are some cars and even a bus, useful for ambientation.
This is not an arcade, is nearer a tactical trainer for an officer academy...
It comes with 3 campaigns, the original one for Western forces, Resistance (Nice Anti-soviet Propaganda exercise) and Red Hammer (A really shame if you are not an US citizen).
If you want to use this game as a soviet-eastern-block soldier, better make your own missions with the editor.
The editor has 2modes, one simple an manageable and the otherreally comprehensive but difficult to manage.
